[wpkg-users] Settings screen resolution

[Paul McGrath]

Hi Stefan,
  Some older software 'prefers' to run in 4:3 to display images better and it may be easier to get 500 people to change their resolution manually but even over paid educated people struggle to read instructions (with pictures!) and doing it for them is often easier, simpler, quicker and less hassle.  I am researching the concept so may not necessarily do it.
Thanks
Paul

Nowadays monitors and graphic adapters decide to use the native resolution of the monitor.
Setting the screen resolution through the person in front of the monitor is still the preferred way.

What do you like to accomplish?
Why is setting the screen resolution by a software deployment tool so important, when it can be easily done by the user?
